Excerpt from The Judgement of Illingborough Temptation which comes to all men at one time or ather came to Mr. James Beaver irresistibly on a certain afteron in June. It was t indeed the first time temptation had come to him, r the first time 'that he had - t ungracefully - yielded. But all the temptations of an idle-minded man do t make a story, and this one did. Let it be placed to Mr. Beaver's credit, here and w, that without his suppleness in giving way several things counted of importance by those interested in them would t have happened. Later on, moralists may decide how much his credit stands at. No burdensome amount perhaps. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
